Requirements for Participation
In order to participate in the Red Hat Solution Provider program, solution providers must meet a set of requirements. These include having a valid SUSE or Red Hat support contract, passing an eligibility assessment, and meeting other program requirements.
To qualify for the solution provider program, you must have a valid SUSE or Red Hat support contract and be registered with the solution provider program. You must also pass an eligibility assessment, which is a review of your qualifications to provide solutions for customers.
